Not used the Silva Machine on the road recently so went out for a run today
Super run through Derbyshire, Snake Pass,etc until 5 miles from home, stuck in 5th
RAC called - excellent service - car delivered hone
Reckon its the selector cable that;s failed- blimey it’s £270 plus VAT - excellent I have a spare :
Chap who collected me related that yesterday he took a sick LaFerarri to Cornwall but because their insurance cover was limited to £1Mill the owner had to fork out another £3k insurance to get it home - supercar ownership don’t come cheap
Looking forwards to taking mine out next weekend to go to Silverstone for the PH Sunday Service and watch the BGT and Caterham racing
The thing more surprising than the £3k is that the AA recovered it. After paying that much for a motor vehicle you’d expect a chopper to come and pick you up and a Ferrari truck to arrive to deal with the car.
Always worth adding a cable tie to the spring clip just for added protection from that happening again. It’s a pain in the arse to lose the gears so worth doing.
